Who was the "architect of the Sixtiers movement" and the leader of the national liberation movement? Who helped Vasyl Symonenko become an authoritative author? Thanks to whom do we have recordings of how the Sixtiers recited poems? All this and much more was told in the program "Identity Code" on the "Dim" TV channel by senior researcher of the Institute of History of Ukraine PhD in History Oleh Bazhan.
